Hawaii

We are in Hawaii right now enjoying the sun and the cool breezes (along with sunburns). I was being brave (I am not such a fan of water and I hate fish!) and paddling out a ways into the ocean to look at the sea turtles more closely. My Beck was brave and was swimming in his life jacket and Pais with a floatie was swimming as well with her life jacket with Stephen and I was paddling next to them when I noticed a bumble bee out in the middle of the ocean (okay maybe 30 feet from shore) struggling in the open water and I felt bad for him and tried to get him onto my little board with my paddle, but it wasn't working very well, so I tried to scoop him up to save him from a terrible drowning death and I know he was just protecting himself, but the little booger STUNG ME! I pulled the stinger out and then threw him back in the water. Little booger got what was coming to him..... OUCH!!!!!
